Life is like music; both are meaningless without love… Past Forward - Features 9 original songs (some old, some new) and two bonus tracks in the style of soul/pop/rock. The songs are loosely based on the arc of my love-life from past to present with turbulence, sincerity, a little bit of sap and a whole lot of love.
